The codes below are for Custom Excel Functions that have been written to calculate tax based on a sliding scale, or bracket tax. The first one is based entirely on the built-in method that can be used to calculate sliding scale tax and requires named ranges , or constants. The second is more self contained and requires no named ranges, or constants.

To use either codes, go to Tools>Macro>Visual Basic Editor (Alt+F11) and then Insert>Module and paste the code near the bottom of this page.

The first would be used in any cell like: =TaxPayable(A2) where A2 has the gross amount.

The second would be used in any cell like: =Tax_Payable(A2,12000,22%,13000,25000,30%,7000,32000,38%,13000,45000,45%) where A2 has the gross amount.

To make this easier to read, I have placed the cell names next to their named cell. In the first code below, only the grey cells are being used. The last column (Amount of Tax Payable on) is the result of subtracting the Level*Tax (one row down) from the Level*Tax on the same row. For example, $13,000.00 (Level1TaxAmount) is derived by subtracting Level2Tax (25000) from Level1Tax (12000). That is:

=Level2Tax-Level1Tax

Function TaxPayable(Amount As Currency) As Currency



Select Case Amount

   Case Is > Range("Level4Tax")

        TaxPayable = ((Amount - Range("Level4Tax")) * Range("Level4TaxRate")) + _

   Case Is > Range("LowTax")

=Tax_Payable(A1,12000,0.22,25000,0.3,32000,0.38,45000,0.45)

Where:

12000 (11999.99 and below is tax free) is where level 1 tax starts. 0.22 (22%) is level 1 tax percentage.
25000 is where level 2 tax starts. 0.30 (30%) is level 2 tax percentage.
32000 is where level 3 tax starts. 0.38 (38%) is level 3 tax percentage.
